Key Steps in the Mortgage Process

  • Initial Mortgage Consultation: Meet with one of our qualified mortgage advisers to discuss your options and determine how much you can borrow.
  • Apply for an ‘In Principle’ Decision: We’ll apply to your chosen lender for an initial decision, giving you an idea of how much the lender is willing to lend you.
  • Choose a Property: Once you’ve found the right property, make an offer.
  • Full Mortgage Application: After your ‘In Principle’ application is accepted, submit a full mortgage application. We’ll help you choose the right mortgage product and repayment method.
  • Appoint a Solicitor: You’ll need a solicitor to handle the legal aspects of the purchase.
  • Valuation and Survey: A property survey will be carried out. We’ll review the results with you to ensure everything is in order.
  • Mortgage Offer: After approval, you’ll receive and sign the official mortgage offer.
  • Exchange and Completion: Once contracts are exchanged, you’ll pay your deposit. Upon completion, the property is officially yours.
  • First Repayment Letter: You’ll receive this shortly after completion, detailing your repayment schedule and amounts.
